IMEC (Leuven, Belgium; www.imec.be) has developed a design technology supported by a prototype tool that can quickly model and then analyze noise generated on both the low- and high-ohmic substrates ...

Separating the power/ground connections used for the analog sections from those used for the digital areas will improve the isolation of the power supplies. Adding external/internal filtering should ...

We were recently tipped off to quite a resource — on the Texas Instruments website, there’s a page where you can view and ...

The huge increase in variety and number of ways people interact with electronic communications systems is no secret. More cell phones, wireless computers, and other multifunction, media-rich products ...

The progress in digitization has profoundly changed our lives. There is no area of everyday life to which digital circuits haven’t penetrated. Ever more powerful microcontrollers and data converters ...

Several years ago, analog and mixed signal (AMS) content hit a wall. Its contribution to first-time chip failure doubled, and there is no evidence that anything has improved dramatically since then.

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough in analog computing, developing a programmable electronic circuit that harnesses the ...

When it comes to getting signals from an analog world into our computers, most of us don’t give much thought to how the hardware that does the job works. But as it turns out, there are a number of ...
